Assessing managers' common sense using situational judgment tests (journal article)
by Nicholas P. Salter and Scott Highhouse
from Management Decision, Vol. 47 No. 3 2009, pp. 392-398
"In industrial-organizational psychology, research and practice has focused on the use of situational judgment tests to predict managerial job performance. Although there is considerable controversy over what these tests actually measure, many have argued that they at least partially measure practical intelligence or “common sense.” The authors conclude that these tests do offer an efficient method of assessing common sense that can be easily adapted to many employment settings."
